The Yu Yureka released at the beginning of the year and was an instant hit with consumers looking for a value for money smartphone.

As you can see the design differs in several ways from the original Yureka.

The display has curved edges, a little like the Samsung Galaxy S6 Edge and the whole handset looks to be higher quality. The build users 3D curved Dragontrail glass and there’s a mirror finished Polymer removable reverse with Royal Gold Aluminum.

The designer of this concept vision has also come up with imagined specs for the device. This Yu Yureka Plus is powered by a Snapdragon 808 hexa-core processor (two cores at 1.82GHz and four at 1.44GHz), with a 5.5-inch Sharp IGZO display with Full HD resolution of 1920 x 1080 and 441 ppi.
